I only happened to come across the <canvas> tag by chance. It’s an attempt to create a better graphics environment for the web. It’s already supported by Firefox, Safari, Opera 9, and Internet Explorer!
There’s a tutorial here. There’s a nifty example here. You interact with the canvas through Javascript.
I’ve grown very fond of Javascript over the last few months. Lately I’ve been playing with Javascript inside Rhino for unit testing purposes. Rhino lets me run Javascript in a shell. It’s even possible to extend the Javascript environment using Java. This means you can read/write files on the system system, etc.
